The Welcome Party

First, I would like to say that just because most of my pictures are taken while I'm out at night, it really hasn't been that common since I've gotten here. Sure, I have been to kareoke enough to average out to one a week for every week that I have been here but what can I say, this is a land that loves to sing, whether they know the words or not. Last Saturday (about a week and a half ago) We had our work party. This was a big party with a lot of the students and almost all of the teachers. I had a ton of fun and got to know some of my students better. I think this post is mainly just going to be photos because they pretty much speak for themselves. Oh, I would like to mention that the hat I am wearing (and others throughout the night) was a gift from two of my students, well actually, only one, the other is Tyler's student. The hat is a soccerball and the bill is the German flag, since it wouldn't surprise me if the symbolism in this was lost, it was from the World Cup that was held in Germany this year! The Japanese are huge soccer fans and the World Cup was a pretty big deal here. So I wore the hat pretty much all night, and when I wasn't wearing it, someone else was. Good times, Good Times!
